Linear Position Sensors

Linear position sensors are electronic devices that measure the linear displacement of an object and convert it into an electrical signal that can be used to determine the position of the object. They are commonly used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, such as automotive, aerospace, and robotics.

Linear position sensors work by detecting the position of a movable target or object in relation to a fixed reference point. They typically consist of a sensing element, which measures the position of the target, and a signal processing circuit, which converts the position measurement into a usable electrical signal.

There are several types of linear position sensors, including resistive, inductive, capacitive, and optical sensors. Resistive sensors work by measuring changes in resistance as the target moves, while inductive and capacitive sensors measure changes in the magnetic or electric field between the target and the sensor. Optical sensors use light to detect the position of the target and are often used in high-precision applications.

Linear position sensors offer several advantages over other types of position sensors, such as rotary position sensors. They provide accurate and precise position measurements, even in harsh environments or extreme conditions, and they can be used in a wide range of applications.
